Safety and operating instructions for the home sports complex
Safety and operating instructions for the home sports complex
The home sports complex is intended exclusively for indoor use. The construction consists of natural wood, plywood, MDF panels, and metal connectors, which gives the product stability and durability.
The complex is designed for users aged 3 and older and is suitable for supervised physical activity by children and adults. The maximum weight capacity is 100 kg. Simultaneous use by multiple people is not permitted. Children may only use the complex under constant adult supervision.
The product is not suitable for outdoor use or in rooms with high humidity – this can lead to deformation of the components, making proper assembly impossible and affecting the stability of the construction.
Assembly site
To ensure safe and long-term use of the home gym, choosing and preparing the right installation location is crucial. Ignoring these requirements can lead to structural instability, an increased risk of injury, and a shortened product lifespan.
Level and stable surface:
Only mount the unit on a hard, level, and stable surface (e.g., concrete, parquet, or paneling). Unevenness, cracks, or a sloping floor can cause the structure to wobble or tip over. Avoid mounting it on high-pile carpets, as these will compromise stability.
Soft, shock-absorbing flooring:
To reduce the risk of injury in the event of a fall, it is recommended to use protective or cushioning mats with a minimum thickness of 60 mm around the complex. Suitable materials include rubber mats, playground tiles, or sports mats. The surface should be level, non-slip, and provide good grip.
Minimum free space:
It is recommended to leave a clear space of at least 1 meter around the complex. Ensure that there are no furniture, walls, radiators, or other objects nearby that users could bump into. The clear space must provide sufficient room for safe and unrestricted movement during training.
Ceiling height:
The ceiling must be high enough to allow users to use the complex without restrictions and to prevent them from touching the upper elements during training. The minimum distance between the ceiling and the highest point of the structure should be at least 50 cm.
Lighting:
The installation site should be well-lit so that the user can clearly see all elements of the system as well as any obstacles on the ground. Avoid glare and direct sunlight, as these can impair visibility.
Ventilation and humidity:
Avoid assembling the complex in damp rooms, such as basements or unheated areas. Wooden elements can absorb moisture, leading to warping and reduced load-bearing capacity. The optimal relative humidity is 40–60%, and the room temperature should be between 18 and 24°C.
Avoiding dangerous areas:
Do not install the complex near windows, doors, or stairs.
Fastening and stability:
The entire structure must be securely anchored to the ground to ensure stability and safety. Use only the original fasteners supplied with the product. Ensure all connections are tightened and correctly installed. After assembly, carefully check that the structure is stable and does not move under load. If necessary, tighten all connections to eliminate any play and further enhance stability.
Regular security checks:
Before each use, the stability and technical condition of the structure must be carefully checked. All fastenings should be regularly tightened and the components inspected for damage, taking into account the recommendations of standard EN 913.
Assembly and installation
Before starting assembly, ensure that all components match the supplied parts list and show no visible damage. Check that all parts are present and that they comply with the instructions. Use only the original fasteners supplied with the product for assembly, as these meet safety standards and ensure the reliability of the construction.
Only lightly tighten the fasteners during pre-installation – this allows for adjustments to individual parts if necessary. Final tightening of screws and fasteners should only be carried out after complete and correct assembly according to the instructions. This ensures maximum precision during assembly and the secure fixing of all parts.
After completing the assembly, carefully check that all screws are tightened securely and are stable.
If you discover damage or defects to individual components during or after assembly (e.g., cracks or chips on the surface), stop assembly immediately and contact the manufacturer to obtain replacement parts. If visible damage is present, the system must not be used until the defects have been completely repaired.

Before first use, thoroughly inspect the system for any visible damage to avoid the risk of injury. Ensure that the construction is technically sound and safe.
The unit must be firmly anchored to the ground to prevent it from tipping over during use. Ground anchoring minimizes the risk of a fall during active use and complies with the safety recommendations of the EN 913 standard.
If the structure wobbles even after assembly without a load, loosen the upper fixings, carefully place the assembly on a flat surface, stabilize it, and then tighten all screws again. Ensure that all components are correctly assembled and securely connected. Check for play or other defects that could compromise stability.
Covering technical boreholes
To prevent fingers from being trapped in technical bores, it is recommended to use the supplied plastic covers for furniture. This is a safety requirement according to EN 913 and serves to prevent accidents. The covers must be fitted to all potentially dangerous openings.
Problem with rotating rungs
If you notice during assembly or use that one or more rungs are rotating because they cannot be sufficiently secured with the supplied metal elements, please follow these instructions:
Method 1:
- Unscrew the metal clamps on both sides of the rung.
- Apply wood glue to the confirmation holes (a conventional paper glue can also be used, provided it is suitable for wood).
- It is not necessary to put glue directly into the screw hole of the confirmand – the glue should create a firm connection between the inner wall of the side strut and the end of the beechwood rung.
- Apply glue to the end of the rung and to the inner surface of the drilled hole in the vertical strut. Use a tube with a fine nozzle to reach even hard-to-reach areas.
- Screw the confirmat back in and let it dry for the time specified by the adhesive manufacturer. Repeat the process on both sides of the rung.
Method 2:
- The borehole may have been damaged by overtightening the confirmat, so that the rung no longer has a hold.
- Unscrew the confirmator on both sides.
- Insert a small piece of wood (e.g. a matchstick or toothpick) into the holes in the rung.
- Then screw the confirmat back in.
- If the problem persists, add another piece of wood until the rung no longer rotates.
Regular security checks
Following the recommendations of standard EN 913, check before each use that the structure is stable and all fasteners are securely tightened. Regularly monitor the condition of the wooden and metal components to ensure the safe use of the system throughout its service life.
